Question: 1 / 50

What source contains much of the administrative law created by the U.S. government?

U.S. Code

Bill of Rights

Code of Federal Regulations

The Code of Federal Regulations is the correct answer because it is the official compilation of the general and permanent rules and regulations published in the Federal Register by the executive departments and agencies of the federal government. This code organizes the administrative law established by these agencies, making it accessible and searchable. Each title of the Code of Federal Regulations pertains to specific areas of federal regulation, providing clarity and structure to the legal framework that governs federal administrative activities. The U.S. Code mainly contains the statutory laws of the United States, i.e., laws that have been enacted by Congress. The Bill of Rights outlines foundational individual rights and does not encompass administrative law. The U.S. Constitution serves as the supreme law of the land but also does not specifically address administrative regulations, as it primarily establishes the structure of government and the rights of the people.
